| Hayden off on 16:41 - May 4 by Jevlar | And to contrast, Gillingham have announced their retained/released list yesterday. That’s their competitive advantage in league 2 ruined!! |
It’s that sort of approach that leaves them stranded in 17th place rather than the dizzying heights of 15th! 1 nil to Nourry |  |

| Hayden off on 18:08 - May 4 by HammersmithR | Nourry and Cycling Ben will drip feed the released yet for the rest of the summer to ensure no other club in the Championship knows who we have in the squad for August. |
When you put it like this, it just highlights how blaady stupid the approach the club currently has to this is. It’s not like the list of players is going to reveal the location of Atlantis or who really shot JFK |  | |  |
| Hayden off on 19:06 - May 4 with 2513 views | davman | Better than Varane this season although that is not saying much... Top pro, experience and a professional outlook. That will need to be replaced somehow not by an Australian "wonderkid". That's at least two CMs we now need to add to the GK, LB and RB we also need as a minimum... |  |

| Hayden off on 16:35 - May 4 by Lanhoop | I quite liked Hayden but he was neither nasty enough nor talented enough for what we needed. Sadly I think the same applies to Varane and Field. We need to have a balanced group not balance players like these. |
Sam Field, former captain, former player of the year, players player of the year and about to turn 28 years old. Exactly the sort of player we need to give balance to the team in my opinion. |  | |  |

Agree, and if Kolli is also off, another striker should be added. |  | |  |

| Hayden off on 14:36 - May 4 by Hunterhoop | I hope it doesn’t but I think it will. To Derby. Hayden felt like a waste of money this season, to me. Just have Field do that role. Hayden’s last few performances looked like that of a player who knew he wasn’t going to be here next season, or whose legs have gone, or both. Right call. |
Field was doing that role in the first 4 games and to be honest was terrible in them and in pre season so made a lot of sense to bring Hayden in. He's been OK, neither good nor terrible this season. Good move to go seperate ways this summer though |  | |  |

Agree, I like Field, but boy is he a slow starter every year, he was abject in pre and early season, and with a new manager coming in the first impression would not have been great. When Cifuentes came in it was November which is normally when Field hits his stride. I think we knew Hayden was off at the Swansea game, when he phoned in a pretty unprofessional performance IMHO he talked a good leadership game but I dont think I've seen it this season, tbh honest I expected more from him, so I think its right to move on and hopefully make space for an experienced midfield leader. |  | |  |

By the way, that kid , whoever he is, was a replacement for Frey. |  | |  |

| Hayden off on 08:05 - May 5 with 1445 views | SW_Ranger | You would hope it’s a wake up call for Field that he needs more to his game. Not getting regular starts with us, I imagine he thought Nawich would give him that - and it hasn’t. Surely he realises now he needs to up his game at 28. He’s contracted here, so get back to the training ground and win your place … or it can only be more of the same. |  | |  |
| Hayden off on 08:16 - May 5 with 1406 views | queensparker | Hopefully this is the start of major surgery at CM for us. Keep Madsen, retain Morgan as backup and bin the rest. Our midfield hasn’t been working since the Ale Faurlin era (maybe with a brief nod to the Scowen/Luongo/Freeman setup) |  | |  |
| Hayden off on 08:22 - May 5 with 1390 views | gazza1 | Poor signing in the first place, done a basic job in the first year but was raved how good he was - he was just OK. Resigned, when he should never have been, but applauded and wanted by many on this very MB. However, this season he has been pretty poor but we had no option but to keep him and send Field out on loan. Poor play from most people/posters. |  | |  |

I agree. No matter how much we all love Sam Field, he was abysmal pre-season and did not improve in the first few weeks of this season. Not surprised the manager did not fancy him after that... |  |

Yeh I was a fan, and the way that midfield looked against Coventry A I would definitely have signed him at that point, but he's been very poor. I wanted leadership and he just sort of went through the motions. In games like that Southampton away debacle I expect people like that to be the ones offering backbone and resistance and making sure that doesn't happen, but he was dreadful that night and then had a bit of a row with a supporter at the end. Poor signing, but I can absolutely see why the club did it and I would have done the same. The whole midfield needs blowing up and starting again. |  | |  |

I agree. I’ve been one of Sam’s biggest fans but he really wasn’t very good in the matches he played in this season and maybe just didn’t fit in with how Stephan wanted to play either. If he wasn’t going to play regularly it made sense for someone else to pay his wages plus put him in the shop window if he’s going to move on. |  | |  |

Some players have really benefitted from the Stephan 4-4-2 inverted winger thing - Smyth, Vale, Madsen, Burrell, Kone - and others really, really have not - Dembele, Saito, Field etc. |  | |  |
| Hayden off on 09:43 - May 5 with 1201 views | Blue_Castello | Without doubt the midfield needs new blood, Hayden is definitely off and I'm hoping we offload Varane back to France for whatever sum we can get, let's not be silly about the transfer fee and accept a sensible amount. From my point of view there's a good argument to keep Sam Field, we all know he's a better player than he showed at the start of last year, he's a defensive midfield player. Somebody who sits in front of the back four, breaks up play and protects the back four, if I'm correct we've achieved the second highest goals against total this season, we have to focus on that and make it massively better next season. So we keep Madesn, Morgan and Field and bring in two new younger players with potential who are attack minded, comfortable with the ball at their feet, look to drive and pass forward, getting rid of too much experience all in one go could well be a massive mistake. |  | |  |
